A new report by the Central Bureau of Statistics warned Wednesday that Israel is failing to stem its brain drain
and some 20% of its professional mathematicians are leaving the country on a regular basis.

According to a Wednesday report in Yedioth Ahronoth, one out of five exact sciences PhDs in Israel
has been overseas for over three years.
